Eighteen

Arnav entwined his fingers with her slender ones as he led her back to the car, he smiled at her only to see her shiver in the rain. Panic beginning to take over him he took off his baseball jacket and placed it on her shoulders. She hugged the jacket, the soft comforting cotton warming her immensely. Khushi looked back up at Arnav and hooked an arm in his smiling at him gratefully. She was so thankful for the most amazing night of her life and the sheer fact that there was more to come enlightened her. As soon as they got in Arnav started the engine and began to drive.

'Arnav where are we going?' Khushi asked, her eyes unfamiliar to the route he was taking, Arnav smirked and glanced up at her

'What's a filmy night without a candle light dinner Khushi?' Arnav mused. Khushi's smile widened as she looked back on the road to find herself before a mass of field. In the middle of it was a large tent with a single table underneath, surrounded by many candles. The place was silent and lonely, but made for just the two of them. Khushi looked at Arnav exasperated, the smile on her face was priceless.

"Is' is that f-'

'It's for you Khushi' Arnav finished softly squeezing her hand in his. As soon as Arnav's car was parked in front of the field, Khushi leaped off her seat and hugged Arnav tightly, falling into his lap in the process. Happiness was dwelled throughout his body as he held her, for eternity. This feeling of perfection so new for him, never once while he was with Lavanya did he consider to ever feel like this with her, heck with anyone! Now, only because of that heated moment in the telephone box, his life in this very moment was something that could never be forgotten. This new soul had risen in him, he was happy nearly all the time, things that he would brush by without a second look now enlightened him. Life was beautiful again and the hole that his parents had pierced in his heart had now been sealed, sealed by her' Khushi. She hugged him tighter as negative thoughts erupted through her mind making her vulnerable into silently shedding a tear, but it didn't go unseen by Arnav.

'Hey, what's wrong Khushi?' Arnav asked cupping her face worriedly

'N-nothing Arnav, it's just that I don't deserve this happiness after putting you through divorce and all that pain. I brushed off your feelings like they really didn't mean anything' Khushi explained tearfully, Arnav sighed and pulled her closer so her head rested on his shoulder.

'Khushi, you did that because you didn't feel the same and that's okay, there's nothing wrong with that. In fact I should still be apologizing for forcing you into marriage, I'm more at fault then you ever have been' Arnav said softly, she could see the pain he felt, having to bring up the marriage again, but he still did it... purely to put her at ease. Khushi leaned over and kissed his cheek

'I love you Arnav, I really do' Khushi whispered, Arnav smiled at her gently as he put a strand of hair behind her ear.

'And that's all I'll ever need from you' Arnav said soothingly 'Now lets go and have a dinner'

Arnav and Khushi held hands as they walked towards the beautifully decorated table that was laying peacefully in the middle. Khushi squinted to get a better look at the food on the plates only to gasp with excitement

'Oh my god! Gol Gappe!' Khushi squealed before excitedly running to the table and taking a seat, Arnav watched her mockingly as he went and sat down opposite her. She truly loved her food.

'Let's have a Gol Gappe competition?' Khushi urged, bopping up and down eagerly in her chair.

'A what?' Arnav asked with confusion, there was a gol gappe competition?

'Oh ho! A gol gappe competition! Who can consume the most gol gappe in one go' Khushi explained as her eyes lingered over the channey and sauce, imaginig how amazing it would taste with the crispy gol gappes ready to go.

'Hmm, and if I win?' Arnav attempted smirking at her

'You think you stand a chance against me?' Khushi said bursting out laughing, this girl was serious about her gol gappe.

'For tonight's sake, say if I do win?' Arnav asked again

'Okay fine, if you win... you win. You choose what you want from me, and when I win, I get the same okay. So is it a deal?' Khushi urged, Arnav sat down and nodded leaving Khushi with a devilish smirk.

'3... 2... 1... GO!'

Within seconds Arnav and Khushi were gorging on as many gol gappe as they could, clearly trying to out do one another. The taste lingered and danced on their tongues magnificently. By ten minutes, each of them had consumed at east a few dozen gol gappe leaving them both in tears of fullness. Arnav not being able to handle anymore placed his plate on the table and wiped his eyes.

'Okay, I give up. You win' Arnav said weakly, holding his stomach like it carried a tonne of bricks. Khushi jumped up and danced for joy, she had finally beaten Arnav, Thank God for food.

'Shame! I won!' Khushi gloated, but instantly sat down as the brick wall tumbled down in her tummy. After a good 10 minutes of silent recovery, Arnav looked up at her

'I thought a candle light dinner would be way more delicate then this' Arnav moaned

'Oh well, I still had fun' Khushi said smiling warmly

'So you won, what do you want Khushi' Arnav said, getting up slowly, that crooked smile on his face again. Khushi gulped as she saw Arnav begin to blow out a candle, and another and another...

'I want-' And the final candle had been blown out by Arnav, leaving them in complete darkness as he walked up to her. His fingers slowly walked along her waist pulling her in heatedly.

'What do you want?' Arnav asked huskily, his breath on her cheek telling her just how close he was. Khushi looked down, fidgeting with a bit of his shirt in her hands.

'I guess I don't need anything, I have everything I could of ever wanted' Khushi whispered slowly, Arnav bent over and kissed her forehead, his lips lingering for as long as they could.

'So that's it, you don't want anything then' Arnav teased smiling in the darkness

'I don't know! What would you have asked for?' Khushi asked helplessly

'I would of asked for this night to never end Khushi' He whispered into her ear, the seriousness yet lovingness in his voice was so vivid that Khushi couldn't help wrap herself in the warmth of an embrace from him.

'Then I want what you want' She admitted, at that cozy moment in time Arnav got a phone call. Unwillingly, he detached from the hug and answered it.

'What is it NK? I told you not to call tonight' Arnav said into the phone, Khushi watched him as his expressions went from annoyed, to slightly concerned to full on angry.

'I'll be there right away' He said seriously into the phone before he hung up and came to face Khushi, the anger was so obvious, even in the darkness

'What's wrong Arnav?' Khushi asked concerned

'You won't understand... we just need to go, I'll drop you home' Arnav said agitated, worrying Khushi.

'Arnav, I'm going to be your wife soon and I don't want you to hide anything. I will understand, so I want you to tell me' Khushi almost pleaded, Arnav sighed

'Khushi, Di is divorced because we found out her husband is a gold digger who had several other women in his life. He attempted to even kill Di in order to get her money. When I found out I got him arrested straight away. NK just called and told me he's been released from Jail even though his sentence was ten years longer yet. He warned us the last time he saw us that he'd come back to Anjali straight away, try to harm her so we're almost sure that he's going to be at our his by morning if not before. That's why I need to be home to protect my sister and keep her away from this ruthless man.' Arnav said, the blood boiling inside of him, Khushi was shocked to hear what Arnav had just said but she did not argue any further.

'Lets go' was all she said before the two of them rushed to the car.

'I'll drop you home first' Arnav said, driving at crazy speeds

'No, I'm coming with you' Khushi said confidently

'Khushi, I don't think you should get into this mess'' Arnav said not liking her demand

'Arnav, you obviously can't keep an eye on her without making it obvious. I'm a girl and I can crash in her room and be there with her at all times even when you cant. Just let me be there with her... with you' Khushi said, squeezing his hand for comfort

'Alright fine' Arnav mumbled 'Just let your parents know'

Khushi nodded and did as she was told, making her parents aware of the whole situation knowing they would instantly agree for Anjali. Arnav parked up outside their house and the couple walked in, trying to wipe off any visible concern so Anjali wouldn't notice any unusual behavior. Khushi watched Arnav's expressions realizing just what he was thinking. She linked an arm through his.

'Arnav, I totally understand, if we have to move up the wedding so be it. Di is much more important' Khushi said with all the seriousness he had ever seen. He held her hand and pulled her close as they continued to walk to gesture for forgiveness as well as thankfulness.

'I don't know what I'd do without you Khushi' Was all he said before they walked through the doors of Raizada mansion.
